#4 Lammermoor Drive - experiment

10 Feb 10 – Hillary, Dale and I headed out for some neighbourhood sketching.  For me, this is a trial doing loose line & wash style quick sketches.  These were Staedtler Triplus liners and I’m liking the way they bleed when water is added.  Defo require more testing and experimentation.  Quite a different approach for me.  That ‘orrible orange blob is Ziller Ink spilled from an experiment on the previous page.

Perseverance

Watercolour is definitely not my strength medium.

But, I persevere.

It knows how to reduce me to tears before my brush is even in the proximity of the paper.

Still, I persevere.

I’m going on a 3 month Europe holiday and I need to use watercolour in my sketchbook.

Today’s effort at a scene from one of my “France” magazines.

Perseverance.
